Hello all,

Thanks for the great forum - it's been really helpful to me in picking and setting up my new reader.

That said, I'm about to make a rather odd request. I bought a PRS-950 from Best Buy last week. It was the last one they had and they couldn't find the box for it. I didn't really mind all that much except for one issue. They insisted that the PRS-950 doesn't come with an ac adapter but they gave me a micro usb cable.

I took them at their word but when I checked with a friend he insisted that it does. I called them to request an adapter but they checked the specs on the Sony Website and the spec there omits the fact that the ac adapter is in the box. So the Sony website - and nearly every spec sheet on the internet as a result - says that it only comes with a usb cable. The actual box on the other hand says it on the back.

As far as Best Buy are concerned they won't do anything unless I can produce evidence better than the Sony Website - ie a box. As they didn't give me one I don't have one to produce and they don't have one either.

My friend apparently threw his box away when he bought it. He's just that type of person.

So...... my rather odd request .... Is there anyone on this board in the vicinity of Portland Oregon who has a 950 and a box who would be willing to lend me the box so I can show the people at Best Buy? I'd only need it for an afternoon. I know it's an odd request but I didn't think there would be any harm in asking - especially as charge time without the adapter was 6 hours and none of my other adapters work.

Thanks for wading through that!!

Best regards,

Raj.
